I'll second what Clayton says... 100b/s is 1Mbps Clayton Macleod wrote: sorry, but you're wrong. 1Mbps in terms of *network communication* is always 1,000,000 bits, just like 1Kbps is always 1,000 bits.

There are 8 bits in a byte. 1Mbps (bits per second, the standard measurement for most telcommunications speeds) 1Mbps is capable of sending 1024kbps, which is 1048576 bits per second. 128k is actually 131072 bits per second 16k is 16384 bits per second. Rounded values are however good as they leave some space for oversubscription / link control / protocol overhead. Yeah, I couldn't recommend running a server on 16kbps up. -- Clayton Macleod ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

Re: [hlds] Timed bans in HLDS
If you want timed bans to persist, you must avoid restarting the server... I believe there might have also been an addon to a stats program that would propagate timed bans. Not sure about AMX though. Sorry, I don't use 1.6 often, so can't help you much more than that. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi! This is my first post to this list having only eavesdropped up until now, so please bear with me if I go about it the wrong way. I'm one of the admins of a small CS 1.6 (HL1) server park and for some time we've been puzzled as to how certain time-banned players were able to play on our servers before their respective bans expired and using the same SteamID they used when getting banned. Last night I finally decided to try to have a look at what's going on and I noticed that only permanent bans are listed in the banned.cfg file. None of the timed bans were present. I've checked our server logs and all bans are executed as they should be (we're using "banid kick; writeid".) Now, the only logical conclusion I have for the missing presence of any timed bans is that they are stored in memory and automagically disappear, when the server is restarted. But on the other hand, that sounds a bit fantastic, since that would mean that nothing but permanent bans are enforced reliably then. I simply cannot believe this is so. Please help me out! Any info is appreciated!

Re: [hlds] changelog
I'm very grateful to have someone else say this... I played a little last night, but I had a "work" dinner, so was a little tipsy, but started playing and I was "Why is everyone short?, I'm not THAT drunk!!!" Clayton Macleod wrote: wonder why they never mentioned the player model scaling change in the changelog? Now player models are all out of proportion with every single map out there. Funny that Valve would choose to change the player model scaling rather than raising the 1st person point of view origin to the correct height.

Re: [hlds] Re: sv_unlag and Ping
Would turning sv_unlag down to the highest acceptable limit on our server keep people from using interpolate to have hitboxes lag behind models? We usually accept a 125ms-140ms ping, and start kicking at higher than that... (mainly as a way for the regs to get in). So should we set sv_unlag to 0.140? Thanks, Steve iceflatline wrote: well, obviously... Clayton Macleod wrote: well, obviously, sv_unlag is what turns on the compensation for clients' latency. It's what makes it so you don't have to lead your shots in front of the model you see, so you can actually aim at the model as if you had no latency at all. Turning it off just brings you back to the quake 1 days when there was nothing done to compensate for latency at all. The only situation where you might consider turning this off is on a LAN, but even then it makes no sense to turn it off, really.

Re: [hlds] Vac2 Beta Lag Spikes
There isn't much going on with the server side of VAC (ie cheat detection done by client side, etc), so it really shouldn't lag UNLESS you are really close to your max bandwidth, and in that case you might drop a COUPLE of packets, but nothing that should cause a noticable lag... I can imagine it might take a little longer at round start, but I still think it would only be <1sec... our memory/proc usage didn't change at all when we started the VAC beta, and hasn't trended up either...

Re: [hlds] Status of VAC2 Beta
The "VAC2 Beta" refers to the servers enabling VAC2. The servers don't do the cheat detection, so that testing is completely independant, and I believe has been going on since march/april. Steve (aka Mudboy) The-Space.net Jonathan wrote: Apologies if I've somehow missed this in an earlier message from someone else (or Alfred, even), but the last I knew of VAC2, it was still in connectivity testing. This was several weeks, I believe, before the recent update that seems to have expanded the beta to 1.6. So, where exactly are we with the beta test? Still connectivity, or have we moved along to cheat detection testing? Just curious to see how it's progressing. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
